Simple Spinach Quiche

This is one of my favorites and something my mom would cook a lot when I was growing up. You mix, pour, and bake or freeze. Nothing to it.



Simple Spinach Quiche

  • 3 eggs, slightly beaten
  • 10 oz. box of frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
  • 1/2 c. finely chopped red onion
  • 1/2 tsp. black pepper
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 c. evaporated milk
  • 1 1/2 c. shredded mozzarella
  • 1 c. shredded Swiss
  • 9-in. pie crust

Put the pie crust into a pie plate and crimp the edges a little with a fork or your fingers. You can't mess it up. Pour everything else into a big bowl, mix it up, and pour it into the pie crust. Bake it at 425 degrees for ten minutes. Then turn the heat down to 325 and bake another 40 minutes. Cut it into wedges, serve it with a salad, and enjoy a really easy dinner.

If you want to freeze it, bake it for the ten minutes and then leave it out to cool. When it's completely cool, wrap it with plastic and foil, and freeze for up to six months. When you're ready to eat it, put it uncovered in a 325 oven straight from the freezer for 45 minutes or until the quiche is a little bubbly around the edges. It's that simple!

You're welcome to add shredded chicken to it, asparagus, artichokes, bacon, or anything else that sounds good. Mess around with the cheese a little if you like a stronger cheese flavor. It's totally open for interpretation. Let me know how you like it!

This is a great quiche! I made it for dinner last night. My 3 year old son loved it so much he asked for seconds. Even my 'meat&potatoes' husband was satisfied with the quiche, salad, and fresh melon for dinner. Thanks for a wonderful recipe!
